Kayak Forum Issues

UPDATE:

I am currently experiencing technical issues with the KayakForum.com Bulletin Board system.

My service provider recently upgraded the operating system for the server KayakForum am hosted on. As a result, the forum software has some issues. For example you can't post messages, and I can't delete the spam posts you see. The fact that you can see anything there indicates that it is not totaly broken, but it functional inactive at this time.

My service provider seems to be indicating there is nothing I can do, but I'm investigating further.

Upcoming Events

If you want to build a lightweight, rugged, and beautiful small boat, combining thin strips of wood with epoxy and fiberglass will make a cartoppable, low-maintenance, and gorgeous vessel. Nick Schade has been building strip-built boats for over 30 years. He has written two of the standard texts on the subject, Building Strip-Planked Boats and The Strip-Built Sea Kayak, and his efforts have guided thousands of people through building their own boats using the popular strip-planked method.

I am very excited to announce that I will be teaching a week-long on-the-water sea kayaking class in Maine this summer. If you have one of my designs, or you are interested in learning how to handle a sea kayak on the ocean, this is your chance to gain some great experience, while enjoying one of the prettiest places to paddle in the world.

Join Guillemot Kayaks and Sea Sherpa Kayak in Maine.
This five day event features the East Coast's finest sea kayaking and highlights a chance to try the amazing wooden kayaks by Nick Schade in the conditions they were designed for.
